The holiday season really brings out the worst in people and I believe it's all because people are too focused on trying to get the best deals instead of focusing on the real value of what we are celebrating. The holiday season shouldn't be about buying, buying, buying. It should be about spending time with your loved ones and showing them the love you have for them.
Nowadays this season brings out the worst in people. As a retail worker I see this on a daily basis. People will do anything to get the best sale or items during this season that it's actually disgusting. I recently saw two middle aged mom's physically fighting in the mall's parking lot over a parking space. Mall security was even called to settle the fight and send the women home. As this was all happening someone leaving the mall approached my car and offered me a better spot than either of the two ladies were fighting over. This kind of represented a symbolic experience for me. Look at what you have in front of you rather than what others have. If the ladies weren't acting ridiculous over a parking space, they would have been able to find another one.
It's extremely upsetting to me that a time that is suppose to be centered around giving and loving one another has turned into such a violent time.
